1932: Vampyr
Though the recency of the sound film invention still shows in this 1932 sort-of-horror film, it manages to create a somewhat Lost-Highwayesque dreamy athmosphere and is much more convincing as an aesthetic exercise than the similarly-themed 1922 Nosferatu or 1931 Dracula, both of which are nothing but unintentionally funny today.
